it's pretty obvious he doesn't mean physical assault, but public critique.
That would make sense. The candidate that excites liberals hasn't had any success in the Democrat Primary, which is why it wrapped up so much faster than the GOP one did...>If you think that's going to hurt him, however, I'm afraid at this point you have an overly-optimistic opinion of the electorate … . We want to be entertained.
I'd say yer confusing the American electorate with those who voted in the GOP primaries. The former is a much larger group, one that contains a much smaller percentage of ignorant, hateful morons.
Unlike many previous Presidents, mostly Republicans, President Obama has decided to wade into the upcoming campaign from the White House and from the lectern when in foreign countries. As such, candidate Trump is perfectly within his rights to drag President Obama into this current election cycle if he feels that will somehow improve his chances in November. I would, however, question the wisdom of focusing attention on Obama when Hillary Clinton is the opposition and she provides a solid wealth of avenues of attack.
President Obama is yesterday's news and like many he's trying to glom onto Trump's notoriety in order to get attention and appear relevant. President Obama is going to need serious time in therapy in order to adjust to the hit on his ego that being forgotten and not missed will leave with him.
Speaking of Obama wading into the upcoming campaign, do you think that him doing that is going to help more or less than it did in the last election?
You remember that one, right? Where the Senate changed hands, and the Dems were handed their asses in the downstream elections?
Scandal Politics: The Downstream Effect
So yeah. Hey Obama! Go for it. Go out and campaign your heart out again. Just like last time.
Except this time it's sure to be with a worse result, as Trump will be on the attack.
For several years now, the elections in Congress and particularly the Senate have depended entirely upon whether or not the Republicans nominate reasonable and sane candidates. Prior to 2012, they took the advice of Sarah Palin and other Tea Party idiots and nominated unelectable fools. In 2012, they nominated a slate of candidates that gave them control of the Senate. I'm not sure what they've done in races where the incumbent Republican isn't running or where the Democrat incumbent is vulnerable, but if Sarah Palin glomming onto Donald Trump is any indication and she has any influence, the Senate may be lost.
Like most claims against Trump, nothing but exaggerated nonsense.... the way he's encouraged his supporters to attack protestors.

Not so fast there, they elected Obama twice didn't they? Contradicts your not being ignorant morons part, at the very least.Yeah, thanks for clearing that up. Fwiw, I didn't think The Frump meant he's gonna "punch him in the face" the way he's encouraged his supporters to attack protestors.

I don't believe that Palin has as much influence as you might think. I think she's pretty well cashed out by now, and pretty well ignored.
Another thing that's in the GOP's favor is the ObamaCare price hikes, deductible hikes, and coverage reductions every November, just before the elections. A recurring and painful reminder of what the Democrats did to the electorate with that legislation. That isn't helpful in the least I think.
I wish I had as much faith in the electorate as you do. I've seen it here in Canada and Ontario as well, the election a government based on personality at the federal level and the reelection of a corrupt and incompetent provincial election based on misguided ideology.

Thank you for exemplifying what I said.Trump is the physical embodiment of exaggerated nonsense, so I excuse your erroneous interpretation.
